Congressional Democrats are making their usual empty threats to vote no on the upcoming DHS appropriations bill, but I know they will cave. Can our Democratic leaders grow a spine??????

To go on TV and talk about how horrific what ICE is doing, then to turn around and vote to fund them more? WTF! Jeffries and Schumer need to GO.
